Hey sumeshi, i am using your plugin, but am confused how to implement it. I want it to fade from day to night and vice versa, when it is sunset and sunrise. I have a sun texture and a moon texture, but as for the skyboxes, I don't want to set a texture, is it possible for me to just get it to fade from sky to night if i specify the RGB values of the sky at those times?
